Obama's Health Care Plan

On Wednesday, President Obama released his plan for health care reform.

The speech and further information can be found here: http://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/health_care/

The main points are:
1. people with pre-exsiting conditions will be able to get insurance
2. a cap so people won't become bankrupt paying for medical care when they are sick
3. protects Medicare
4. a public option for all of the uninsured who can't get afforable coversge
5. low-cost coverage for people with pre-exsisting conditions so that they can get treatment until the new laws are created

The new plan won't add to the national deficit and will insist that large companies provide healthcare for their employees.
